Road 97 Boden-Luleå

The Swedish Transport Administration is rebuilding road 97 between Södra Sunderbyn and Sävast into a meeting-free country road with a center barrier, to increase traffic safety and accessibility between Luleå and Boden.

The work started in March 2020 and will be completed in the autumn of 2022. Then the entire stretch between Luleå and Boden will be meeting-free and have new, safer bus stops.

Traffic Disruptions
Road 97 must be open throughout the construction period. However, traffic will periodically be limited due to narrowed lanes and reduced speed. Bus traffic between Boden and Luleå are affected by the redevelopment of road 97. Plan for longer travel time and, if possible, choose an earlier departure by bus.
